Default Common situation w/ midpair and an 18bb stack

From Stars $55 25k grnt. No read on MP2. What's the play here? How about if I have 44? 99?

PokerStars No-Limit Hold'em Tourney, Big Blind is t300 (9 handed) Hand History Converter Tool from FlopTurnRiver.com (Format: 2+2 Forums)

MP1 (t15914)
MP2 (t10405)
Hero (t5336)
CO (t18478)
Button (t8513)
SB (t5650)
BB (t5285)
UTG (t9413)
UTG+1 (t7320)

Preflop: Hero is MP3 with 7[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], 7[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img].
<font color="#666666">3 folds</font>, <font color="#CC3333">MP2 raises to t900</font>, Hero?

Push 100% with no read. What's with all these posts without reads? Doesn't anyone use pokertracker anymore?

You're not deep enough to call for set value here, so it's push/fold.
